This study has developed the iPS cell-mediated PF4-driven FVIII expression system using two non-integrating vectors; therefore, this system may be a promising tool for safer gene- and cell-therapy of hemophilia A.
We utilized a core rat platelet factor 4 (PF4) promoter for Mk/platelet-restricted expression of human B-domain-deleted (hBDD) FVIII within the background of a haemophilia A mouse (rPF4/hBDD/FVIII-/-).
